    I always bang on about Netflix, sorry. πŸ™ˆ But I'm really impressed with their series and films and how frequently new ones are added, and the top 10's updated. It's very easy to find something new to watch. I recently binged Mayfair Witches (also available on BBC iPlayer and loved it. It's about a Witch who realises she has abilities as an adult and all is not what it seems with her family (don't want to give too much away) πŸ˜…

    Last night I watched "Anyone But You" which is a rom-com about a woman and man who absolutely hate each other but have to attend their mutual friends wedding weekend and it had me in absolute stitches. So if you fancy something silly and light hearted to pick you up, it's perfect. ☺️

    Hi @xodza. I hope you're feeling a bit better today

    If that's the case you might like Seventh Son which is in the top 10. That's about witches and witch hunters. 😊

    Why not do a MOOC such as those offered by coursera.com. Unfortunately, they're more expensive than they were:

    @Mary_Scope already had one said was on too much of that drug and ideally want me too come lower but try too and pain was unbearable only other option is injection into your spine which block it but long wait list had few years ago helped little bit so think continue too be this bad will go waiting list for one

    I really hope it eases a bit for you soon @xodza, I have a family member who had a steroid injection into her knee a couple of months ago and it seemed to help her mobility and pain a bit so if you do have one, hopefully it will be the same for you. How are you feeling today? Are you watching any movies?

    I am glad it has eased a bit and you're not in as much pain as yesterday @xodza, I am feeling good thank you😊

    I haven't got round to them yet but they are on my list for when we have a rainy day and all I want to do is get in my dressing gown and a watch a film! When I do, I will definetly let you know what I thought and we'll have a chat about itπŸ˜„

    I recently watched The Rumour on Channel5 and thought that was quite good, that was a bit of a thriller and a "who really is the murderer" guessing game, have you seen that?
